Hello! I am working on the pin order. I still have 3 surveys that are incomplete and a few charge cards that experienced errors. If you have not already done so, please do your survey. There are 2-3 people who need to update payment information. Thank you for all of your support! Dacia This little grey lady showed up a couple of weeks ago. I started feeding one feral cat a little over a month ago and then within a week I had 5. Two just had kittens. This one was loaded down. Now I am looking for kittens. I put out some fliers in the neighborhood to see if anyone knows where these two have babies hidden. Goal: get em spayed. Game cameras are fun to use.
I just wanted to reach out to make sure you know that I haven't forgotten about you!
I have no updates for you, but this is good news. My production partner can typically take up to two months to complete large orders like this one, and have only ever contacted me early if there is an issue that needs to be resolved. So for me, no news is good news!
If I should hear anything I will be sure to let you all know, but for now we are all just patiently waiting for the pins to be produced.
If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.
Very short update but here they are! I hope everyone enjoys them! Next update will hopefully be of the sample photos. Thanks everyone again for your patience!
It's been a minute since my last update but I've finally got a few pictures from the manufacturer that I can show you! Please keep in mind these are rough and not cleaned up as they're in process shots.

It's very exciting to see these getting made and I can't wait to have them all finished and here for me to package up to send to you! Other than these, I don't have much more of an update for Purrfect Post. Just a bunch of more waiting. I do appreciate your continued patience with what feels like the longest part of any campaign, haha!
If you weren't aware though, the launch party page for my next campaign in live!!
Click this banner to get taken to the page and give it a follow! There's less than 70 days until it launches and it feels like that's no time at all! I'm working diligently on it and hope you'll like all these lil guys!
Just wanted to give a little update about the pins!
As you are aware, the color variants are making use of uv printing for different designs, but I wanted to make them a little more robust, so the leopard, panther, and lynx designs all have some adjustments. My deepest apologies for letting everyone know so late, I was so frazzled setting up the surveys and so completely fried after, that it slipped my mind until just now as I was adjusting the cutlines on the sticker sheets to print.
The leopard set and the lynx set both have a set of spots shared between them with their special motifs as screen printed details. For the panthers, I’ll be doing two molds; one for the original confetti panther and another the stretch goal set, since there really isn’t much overlap in their designs.
I’m currently ironing out the details with the manufacturer, but after everything is approved and settled, we’re looking at about a month for the production time! I expect a little back and forth adjusting colors, so I’m gonna put out a rough shipping estimate of late may to June.
Thank you everyone for your patience! Please enjoy some of the digital proofs 💕🌼🌱
Some bonus ramblings if you’ve read this far….
I’m starting to think ahead to what project I’d like to do next… summer fruits are speaking to me right now, I cant seem to get strawberries outta my head.. or maybe carousel kitty plush? That might be a goal for next year actually…. Regardless, worry not! My priority is doing the best I can on these! I really can’t wait to get them and take them out, maybe on an actual carousel ride 💖
Wishing everyone happiness and health! I’ll catch everyone on the next update ☘️
Here is a proof for the Saturn pin. What is wrong with this? Do you see it?
Yeah. The rings are missing.
So this is what it looks like corrected. Every pin has every color selected via Pantone Coated colors. From videos I have seen with pins, it looks like a person actually has an ink injector and fills every channel of every pin with the correct color. Nuts. These things should cost $50 each for that kind of tedious handwork.
We have sent a notice that your cards will be charged in 48 hours. So if you wish to revise your rewards, you can do so by then, and your order will be locked in.
Almost all surveys are in, but I'm still missing info from 13 of you. Make sure to fill these out as soon as you can cause this is the ONLY way I can get rewards to you!
Just wanted to pop in here and say that production is moving along nicely! I've gotten some video of the process from my manu, but I can't attach video here in BK so I'll make them into Reels and put them on my Instagram very soon.
In the meantime, here are some in progress pics of Kittea Cups, Pawpcorn, the Yeti Cat and Meownaise!

Pawpcorn's glitter butter is in!

Hey y'all, hope everyone is doing well! Thanks for your patience with the post-campaign silence, but we are on track 🖤
I just got confirmation from the manufacturer that the pins are done and will be shipping to me soon! Once they've arrived, I'll do quality control checks to make sure everything looks proper. Then it'll be fulfillment time!
I mean seriously, how adorable are these little neko cats? So smol 😻
Next Steps!
Also keep an eye out for shipping charges soon. I'll be calculating shipping rates while I wait for the inventory to arrive from the factory, so please watch out for surveys to fill out your address!
All the surveys have now been sent out! If you wish to unlock Nyanta, make sure you pledge for her! I will be keeping my eye out and hopefully enough people want it that the design is unlocked!
